We did consider that, and put a lot of effort into keeping pull requests small, but the reality is that GH pull requests just don't get the workflow right for a code review that may involve multiple team members, require several passes back and forth, and can handle larger features.
In my experience, pull requests just aren't the right tool for the job at the moment. That's not to say they don't have their place, but there are definitely superior tools out there.
